VICTUS™ Femtosecond Laser Platform
Wright Vision Center is the very first practice in Rapid City and all of western South Dakota to offer blade-free cataract surgery using the VICTUS femtosecond laser. Now, for the first time ever, cataract patients can experience the benefits of laser-based cataract surgery in Rapid City. In traditional cataract surgery, the surgeon uses a hand-held metal blade to make a corneal incision to allow removal of the cataract and insertion of a replacement Intraocular Lens (IOL). Our new VICTUS femtosecond laser platform removes the “manual” aspect of cataract surgery, allowing our doctors to have real-time, 3D imaging of the eye to plan, perform and monitor the most challenging steps of cataract and LASIK surgery. The system complements the surgeon’s skill with computer-guided accuracy.
Benefits of Blade-Free Cataract Surgery
- Faster procedure, less time in surgery
- Cleaner, more precise incision
- Improved safety over manual processes
- More comfortable for the patient
